If you can't beat-em...join-em!!<br /><br />Daphne, You should see the garden now since we got many many hours of rain!<br /><br />PraireCat, My tomatoes are not planted in buckets. The bucket have no bottom and were placed around the plants to protect them from the high winds at the community garden. In the past, I have planted some tomatoes in buckets at the house and they do just fine!Robinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12220238404223196571noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3215310042560560686.post-5288479624489377102011-06-12T01:08:15.615-04:002011-06-12T01:08:15.615-04:00I have been wanting to try to grow some tomatoes i...I have been wanting to try to grow some tomatoes in buckets instead of planting them in the ground. Hopefully it won't make that much of a difference in their growth.<br /><br />Your tiny raspberries look great! We harvested our first one a few days ago off of some plants we purchased a few months ago. It was a welcome and tasty surprise!Prairie Cathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03036436697268048651noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3215310042560560686.post-8826665657551899032011-06-10T15:44:38.516-04:002011-06-10T15:44:38.516-04:00It look gorgeous.

As for berries, I'm going to try to harvest the wild mulberry trees that are trying to invade my property from neighbor's yards. I fought them for years but I finally give up. I'm going to try to make jelly and jam from the berries. They are just starting to turn. Most of the berries are still very green. Maybe in a couple weeks they will be prime to pick and process.<br /><br />Have a great day in the garden.Davidhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00571521947867768070noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3215310042560560686.post-27024182722001243232011-06-09T17:58:28.006-04:002011-06-09T17:58:28.006-04:00Marcia, Megan & VP, Thanks a bunch!!
